I remember the time
Mom and I were at the store
I let go of her hand
so that I could explore.

The Ant’s Plan
The ant
in the band
had a plan
to meet his fan,
Stan,
in the sand.
But that ant
never made it passed the plant
where I happened to stand.
So Stan,
you just can’t,
can’t
meet as planned.
Sorry ant.
My condolences Stan.

The Lesson Learned from Earth
I like spring, I do, I do
the resurrection of the earth when it begins to renew –
reminds me death is not the end, it’s true, it’s true,
and someday, someday I will get to hug you
just like I used to do.

Communication between Buzzards
Don’t Give Up
Impossible to Say Goodbye
by SuzyWordmuser
http://wordmusing.wordpress.com/
Coldness has become my friend
The dark of night wraps around
Joy has gone astray
Uncertain feelings hold me down
A life has been lost
But a life shall be gained
When a new day arrives
You will be here again
When all unfolds
Confusion cleared – and I can see
I will not stand alone
You will live inside of me
You are a breeze upon my face
Invisible to my eye
Forever you will always remain
Impossible – to say goodbye
Written after the death of my mother. Even when someone has gone, and essence still remains. Everything they were and all they did for you will still be alive.

The Trouble with Washing Cars
The color was white
but the winter has been hard
even for the cars.
“You need to wash it,”
they said to me more than once
“It is a white car.”
At last, I listened
and I paid ten whole dollars
to wash the car clean.
The very next day
it rained and snowed and rained more
on my so clean car.
That is not the end,
as I drove home on wet roads
scowling the whole ride
a dirty mean rock
left a chip in my windshield.
Bleeping-bleep rock chip.
Yes, this is a drought
(sigh) so I should be thankful
for all the moisture.
And am I grateful?
I have no pleasant comment –
ask me later, k?

Abraham and Isaac
Genesis 22
Abraham said to Isaac,
“Son, come with me.
It is time to sacrifice
come learn and see.”
Isaac walked with Abraham,
and saw his father shed a tear.
Finally he asked softly ,
“Why did we come here?”
Abraham taught Isaac,
“Son, the Lord is leading me
we made a covenant
and I am not sure how it will be.
Right now, I am lost
I cannot see the end
but I trust the Lord
because he hears me again and again.
This has caused sleepless nights
filled with prayer and fret.
All I know is it will work out
but I do not know how, quite yet.
I love you son,
always know I love you
this thing I have been asked
is the hardest I will ever do.
I do not know how but I believe
a miracle is in store
because the Lord keeps his promises
forevermore, forevermore.
Do you trust me son?
Trust in me like I trust the Lord
there are blessings
that are in store.”
Isaac replied to Abraham,
“I am not sure I can see
but I trust in you
and I know this must be.”
Abraham offered Isaac,
but an angel stopped his hand.
The lesson was taught
so all could understand.
The lesson of Abraham and Isaac:
Trust in the covenants you make
because the Lord always does, too.
And know there is one who took your place
and made the sacrifice for you.

My Awesome Prayer
Sometimes I pray to be awesome
and I wait for that gift to come.
Coming Home
Standing at the front door
looking in, looking in
remembering
what it feels like to be inside.
